Advanced Radiation Oncology Center at the LCRP

The Radiation Oncology Center at the Nancy N. and J.C. Lewis Cancer & Research Pavilion provides a combination of state-of-the-art equipment with highly skilled medical professionals to design a specific treatment program to meet each patient's needs.

Because our physicians, physicists and therapists are specially trained in the most up-to-date techniques in radiation oncology, our team can minimize and prevent damage to healthy glands, organs and tissues. Our patients have access to intense treatment planning with the most sophisticated, accurate radiation therapy devices.

Superior Diagnostic and Treatment Equipment

Led by Medical Director Dr. John Pablo as well as Dr. Joshua McKenzie and Dr. Paul Saconn The Radiation Oncology Center houses some of the world’s most advanced radiation technologies within the LCRP, including:

The CyberKnife– The most advanced radiation technology available in the world. The machine’s robotic movements allow tumors to be precisely targeted with more powerful radiation to treat previously inoperable tumors.

The TrueBeam– An advancement on traditional radiation, this system is more accurate and creates shorter treatment schedules.

Hilton Head/Bluffton Radiation Oncology Center

The Radiation Oncology Center at the Nancy N. and J.C. Lewis Cancer & Research Pavilion now offers this secondary location to treat patients in the Hilton Head area. For initial treatment planning, patients will visit the main (LCRP) location. Consultations, daily treatment and subsequent appointments are then offered at our Hilton Head location for our patient’s convenience.

Located on the south end of Hilton Head Island, our radiation facility provides the latest advances in radiation therapy and compassionate care, closer to home.

The TrueBeam– An advancement on traditional radiation, this system is more accurate and creates shorter treatment schedules.

Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT):IGRT helps to verify the accuracy of radiation treatment with the use of daily imaging before treatment begins. Complemented by sophisticated treatment planning software and pre-treatment imaging studies, this technology is particularly accurate in delivering localized radiation because it allows for breathing and daily internal organ changes.
